Jenny’s Recap: Photos from CHA Winter 2013- Day 1

Winter CHA Show 2013 was a blur- so much happened in 5 days I can barely remember it all! After speaking at a panel on Friday morning, I hustled off to be a judge at the Innovations Showcase and picked MY top three of the CHA Hot 20. Make sure you click the links to read more about that!

Saturday morning the entire #TeamCTD met for a breakfast meeting. It’s the first time we’ve all been together in the same place, and the first time I’ve met some of the gals in real life. What an amazing, creative team we have!!

we were off and running with open of the Exhibit Hall. All of our favorite brands were there, along with some great new companies that were exhibiting for the first time. I also ran into a bunch of crafty friends and got hugs, smiles, and quick updates on who is doing what.

My first crafty reunion was with Lisa Pavelka. If you recall, Lisa is a polymer clay goddess superstar and is the brilliant mind behind 365 Days of Lip Service, in which she made a new polymer clay creation EVERY DAY. On top of a Carmex lip balm jar, no less!! She had a sampling of the projects with her and she showed Angie and I.

Each one of these is created on top of a Carmex lip balm jar. So theya re about the size of a golden dollar.

SO! Then it was running and meetings and a whirlwind! This is what I managed to capture on my phone:

Sara from Mom Endeavors doing a make-and-take at the Plaid booth.

I loved this chandelier at the Ice Resin booth.

Fiskars Fuse Mini dies and letterpress plates.

I love this cute trike adorned with Phoomph! (More on that soon!)

New from EK Success- a new square gear for the Stamping Gear System. Yay!

Do Crafts from the UK is coming over to bring us great dies, embellies and paper crafting products. Can’t wait to see more!

Statichable Cases from Coate and Clark. SQUEE!

Crafty Bloggers rock!

SO…that’s pretty much my first day. Stay tuned to see what other goodies and beautiful people I saw!
